James Alex Fields Jr., the white supremacist who killed a woman during the 2017 “Unite the Right” rally in Charlottesville, has been fined for allegedly threatening a correctional officer and brandishing what was described as a “dangerous weapon.”

for ramming his car into a crowd of people who were protesting against the white nationalists, injuring dozens and killing Heather Heyer, a 32-year-old paralegal and civil rights activist.The documents filed by prosecutors describe a series of incidents in prison from 2019 to 2021, including Fields being “insolent” to a staff member or being disruptive, which resulted in having his phone or email privileges temporarily suspended.

Prosecutors said the restriction would not interfere with the court's ability to order Fields to turn over $650 from his account. “Fields’s restitution obligation was imposed in his amended judgment on October 1, 2019,” prosecutors wrote. “It, therefore, predates Fields’s institutional misconduct fines and has priority over the institutional fines that Fields has opted not to pay to date, which he had two years to pay.”

Denise Lunsford, one of Fields' attorneys in the criminal case, did not immediately respond to an email seeking comment.
